Embarrassing Question
Answers: 97 Views: 7619 Rating: 3 Posted: 13 years ago

Rupert, It all depends on my "mix" but at the moment I have found that 1 fried egg per week (maybe 2) is greatly reducing my embarassment. As a young fella, I heard of a balance in food but never learnt it. Since coming to God I have learnt something though. When you eat too much of a food (potatoes e.g.) your body doesn't need/can't use anymore and our body functions "shut down". However we, remembering that great taste of potatoe eg and eat more and more to recapture the taste until our body functions go awry . I know my feet smell thru the excess of potatoes and other foods cause simlar mishaps. Too much bread e.g. causes my armpits to smell. But David wrote in the Bible that bread strengthens the heart. So the lesson here is that our use of food more often that not lets us down - not the food itself. As it is written in God's Word "All food is good and nothing to be refused if thanks be first given to God for it" which is why we say grace with understanding. Again He says that He "Feeds us food convenient for us". So here we turn to the wisdom of God for help. What am I eating too much of? What am I not eating that I should/could be? Also, Let your senses (all 5 of them !) advise you- again with wisdom. Does the smell of a particular vegetable/fruit stand out in a supermarket. Buy a small quantity only and if you fell it is doing you good add it to your regular diet. Also be ready to reduce s psrticular line of food if it is necessary. Today, I have 3 basic veges - red, white and green and use 3 of each kind at different times for variety also some meat which God specifies for us e.g. after the great flood of Noah's day. I have never put this into writing before Rupert so I hope and pray that it does you good. It wont happen overnight either so be patient and kind to yourself.
